Livia Stein in Two Parts: Part Two
During and After the Deluge
April 28 – June 4, 2022
Artist’s Reception Saturday, April 30th, 1-4 pm
During and After the Deluge, Part Two of Livia Stein in Two Parts, focuses primarily on monotypes and mixed media works on paper developed in the past two pandemic years during which Stein was sustained by the pageantry and beauty of the Opera through the Metropolitan Opera’s free online streaming encore performances. Operas from Nixon in China and Albert Herring to classics such as Madame Butterfly and Rigoletto inspire the work. Eight notebooks filled with opera drawings and mixed media sketches accompany the completed works, providing a glimpse of the artist’s process.
